Ivory Flour Mill, previously Lower Wiley's Mill or Third Wiley Mill was one of many mills dotting the banks of Deer Creek in Harford County during the mid to late 1880s. The mill still exists, although no longer operating.

A few hundred yards upstream from the mill are the remains of the abutments that carried the covered bridge across Deer Creek.¹ The Covered Bridge at Ivory Mill was one of the last to disappear from Harford County. The bridge was gone by 1950.²

The bridge at Ivory Mill was located just off what is now MD Route 23 on Harford Creamery Road, about two miles south of Norrisville in the northwest section of Harford County.
